Fedimint

[Fedimint](https://fedimint.org) is a module based system for building federated applications. It is designed to be a trust-minimized, censorship-resistant, and private alternative to centralized applications. > **Fedimint is released under an [MIT License](https://github.com/fedimint/fedimint/blob/master/LICENSE). This means that the software here is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied. You can find our latest release [here](https://github.com/fedimint/fedimint/releases/latest).** Fedimint ships with 3 default modules - [Bitcoin](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin), [Lightning](https://github.com/lightning/bolts), and [Chaumian Ecash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecash) - for out-of-the-box best practices for private and trust-minimized payments. [You can write custom modules](https://github.com/fedimint/fedimint-custom-modules-example) that define further consensus items and transaction types leveraging the payments modules to build your own federated applications.
